From start to finish, he demonstrated professionalism, attention to detail, and a strong commitment to quality. He ensured that everything was aligned correctly, functioning safely, and aesthetically pleasing. Dave was punctual, courteous, and took the time to explain the operation and maintenance of the fireplace. His expertise and careful workmanship made the installation process smooth and stress-free. I am extremely satisfied with the results and highly recommend his services.

They took the time to explain what they were seeing, pointed out areas to keep an eye on, and made sure everything was safe and functioning properly before leaving. The cleaning was done carefully with no mess left behind, which I really appreciated. It's clear they take pride in their work. I feel much more confident heading into the season knowing everything has been properly checked and serviced. Highly recommend.

Aelite is THE chimney company to have come out to your home. Nick and crew are insanely professional and clean. They took their shoes off without even asking, threw down tarps around all areas to be worked, and definitely did not take us for our money. As a matter of fact, I remember getting quoted double from another company at the same time for the same work. Nick's wife is the one who usually answers the phone and she's pretty incredible too! Talk about nice people. Why can't all companies be like these guys? Well that, I guess, would take just too much work... lol. I can't possibly recommend Aelite enough!! If you're local to their service area, definitely do not hesitate to give them a call. If you receive the same service I did and you're disappointed in any way... the problem is probably with you!! Lol.

Nick spent a lot of time explaining things to me and giving me different options. I can't rave enough about how satisfied I am with the appointment. I was unfortunately unable to convert to woodburning at this time, if and when I decide to, there would be no one else I would even consider calling! Thank you again and also please thank your partner I did not catch his name, you guys make a great team!

Art answered all my questions while keeping all answers short and simple with no gimmicks. Once I scheduled I received a follow up text to let me know Team Chimney Monkey was on their way. The team arrived 10 minutes early, introduced themselves (Alex and Vitaly), wore bootys to protect our wood floors and explained the process. Approximate time was given for maintenance and Vitaly was right on! Inspected the roof top chimney and offered his expertise. Our Gas fireplace looks brand new. I highly recommend Chimney Monkey. Honest, competitive and their customer service is beyond 5 stars! Thank you Chimney Monkey.

We contacted the company and they told us they would send the guy back out to repair the work, but they never did. Then they told us that the guy Mario, who did the work does not work for them anymore. We ask them to send someone else to repair our chimney . They stopped taking our phone calls and would not answer our text messages. I recommend anyone needing chimney work to stay away from this company.

We hired ChimCare for what should have been a routine inspection and sweep, and instead ended up…read morewith a serious safety incident and very poor workmanship. Their technician left the gas running before ignition, causing a fireball to shoot out of the fireplace while I (and our dog) were sitting next to it. It singed the worker's hair and melted his phone case/phone, this easily could have resulted in a serious injury or property damage. It also became clear during the visit that the technicians didn't know how to operate one of our fireplaces. They had to text photos to someone else for instructions and still could not get the second fireplace working (which we later discovered is controlled by a simple wall switch). Despite the lack of safety and technical competence, we were charged a 50% mid-service up charge for "deep cleaning" sweep, with no clear explanation of what that covered beyond the original inspection & sweep service, all while we were trying to calm our dog, who was scared from the fireball. The stone on one fireplace needed crack repair, but the workmanship was sloppy. Sealant was accidentally smeared onto our marble facade on the outside of the fireplace and not cleaned up, and the color of the sealant doesn't match the stone in our fireplace. None of this was disclosed beforehand, and now it will require further repair to fix. We reached out via phone and email multiple times asking for a resolution and gave the company every opportunity to address the issues. It has been over a month with zero response from management. We are now having to dispute the charge through our credit card company. Based on the safety risk, lack of technical knowledge, the questionable mid-service up-charge, and complete lack of accountability or care to resolve these issues with us, I would not recommend this company.
